The following patch fixes a number of type related issues where int's were being used when they shouldn't have been. It also introduces CMOS support so the BIOS can build the appropriate e820 tables.again, you need patch the bios for this, as the bochs bios doesnt know how to map memory above 4 giga, and it doesnt know about this CMOS addresses, (look at the patch that i sent)
Right, but the important point is, that in the absence of the bochs BIOS, this patch does no harm.
